{UAH} LET US TALK ABOUT SECRET SERVICE PROTECTION THIS MORNING
Friends
Way back in the fifties Congress set up a standard on which one qualifies to get Secret Service protection, and it was a very standard procedure, a president and his wife had to get a protection for life, if a wife separated from the husband she lost the protection, all children got protection till the day they turned 16, if you turned 16 you automatically lost the protection. The Vice president and his wife lost the protection the day the government left office, so the Secret Service brings them to the swearing in of the new president ceremony, after the new president is sworn to power, the old president is flown out of Washington to Andrews Air Force base then to his home, the Vice president and his wife are driven in a car and dropped off to the sub way station in Washington, and dropped off at the sub way, and that is how they leave Washington alone.
When president Obama came to office, he muddled that system to what it is today, that I cannot even explain, truthfully today I cannot tell you who is entitled or not entitled to secret service protection for president Obama signed orders that are simply off the mark. It started with his signature that all children of presidents must be protected for life, president Obama’s two daughters were the first to qualify for life protection under his signature. Why they need a life protection, beats me to this very day. And it beats me for those two daughters hated America, they hated The White House, they hated everybody they looked at, and almost felt like spitting at every one they looked at. And you and I remember when a reporter wrote a piece about their behavior, in public places, she was fired the very next day, yes in a country built on free speech. To this day tax payers are still paying for their protection, till when they will die, and I wish someone stands up and explain to me why they deserve it.
Now president Obama didn’t expand Secret Service protection to his daughters only, he extended it to many Democrats, until this morning, I did not realize that Hillary Clinton still had a protection, Letitia James had a Secret Service protection, Stacey Abrahams that has failed to win an election has Secret Service protection, AOC has Secret Service protection, we are now finding out that even after Democrats lose elections, the service remains with them. So when the Trump campaign fails to get the protection it needs the system is really stretched out protecting Obama’s daughters, Kimberly Cheatle was real crap, a crap that had to resign, but it went with its Secret Service protection, till when? I have no idea.
We are standing at a time when we have no proper identifier of who qualifies to get Secret Service protection and to what point do they lose it. Hunter Biden lost the Service when he was in South Africa on vacation with his girlfriend, but do you know how many agents he had at a time? 18 of them. One man who is an adult of a president that lost an election, being protected by 18 agents for he is enjoying a vacation in firkin South Africa on tax payer’s money. And you still wonder why DOGE called all of them back to Washington huh !!!

President Trump issued a memo Friday rescinding the security clearances of more than a dozen individuals, including former President Joe Biden and his entire family, former Vice President Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton.
“I have determined that it is no longer in the national interest for the following individuals to access classified information,” Trump wrote in the memo to the heads of executive departments and agencies, before naming those he’s barring from receiving classified information.

The list includes his three past presidential election opponents — Clinton, Biden and Harris — as well as Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and New York Attorney General Letitia James.AD
“Any other member of Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s family” will also be impacted by the memo.
Former Biden administration officials Antony Blinken, Jake Sullivan and Lisa Monaco are also on the list, as is anti-Trump Republicans Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney.
Alexander Vindman, a key witness who led to House Democrats impeaching Trump for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress in 2019; Fiona Hill, a former Trump administration official who also served as a witness in the impeachment over Trump’s phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky; Mark Zaid, who represented the whistleblower in the 2019 impeachment; Andrew Weissman, the lead prosecutor in former special counsel Robert Mueller’s Trump investigation; and Norman Eisen, special counsel to the Democrat-led House Judiciary Committee during the impeachment will all have their security clearance stripped as well.
“I hereby direct every executive department and agency head to take all additional action as necessary and consistent with existing law to revoke any active security clearances held by the aforementioned individuals and to immediately rescind their access to classified information,” Trump, 78, wrote.
The president also ordered executive department and agency heads to “revoke unescorted access to secure United States Government facilities from these individuals.”

Trump’s memo notes that he’s cutting off “classified briefings, such as the President’s Daily Brief, and access to classified information held by any member of the Intelligence Community by virtue of the named individuals’ previous tenure in the Congress” from the individuals on the list.
“In the event that any of the named individuals received a security clearance by virtue of their employment with a private entity, the United States Government entity that granted the security clearance should inform the private entity that these individuals’ ability to access classified information has been revoked,” the president wrote.
Trump told The Post last month that he planned on stripping the security clearances of several of his antagonists named in Friday’s memo.

On March 10, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced that she had completed a review of security clearances ordered by Trump and revoked those of Blinken, Sullivan, Monaco, Zaid, Eisen, James, Bragg, and Weissman, “along with the 51 signers of the Hunter Biden ‘disinformation’ letter.”
“The President’s Daily Brief is no longer being provided to former President Biden,” she added.DD
Trump argued in a Truth Social post last month that Biden set the precedent when he barred him from receiving access to the same briefings four years ago, citing Trump’s “erratic behavior.”
Biden, 82, blocked Trump from receiving intelligence briefings in February 2021, telling CBS News that the 45th president should not be privy to US secrets “because of his erratic behavior unrelated to the insurrection,” referring to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.
”I just think that there is no need for him to have that intelligence briefing,” Biden added. “What value is giving him an intelligence briefing? What impact does he have at all, other than the fact he might slip and say something?”
Ex-presidents and other former senior officials customarily retain access to classified information.

Allowing former presidents to continue to receive intelligence briefings has historically been done in case a sitting president needs to consult with his predecessor for advice on how to handle a particular situation.
Trump has also signed executive orders stripping law firms Perkins Coie and Paul Weiss from access to security clearances, citing Perkins Coie’s involvement in commissioning the infamous “Steele Dossier and former Paul Weiss partner Mark Pomerantz’s involvement in Bragg’s hush money payments case against Trump.
Perkins Coie has sued Trump over the order and Paul Weiss reached an agreement with the president on Friday to have him rescind the directive.
